Meet Dr. Ruth Lehmann, DACM, LAc.
Dr. Ruth Lehmann started her career as an oncology nurse. With over 20 years of clinical practice and a natural empathy and care for her patients, she became drawn to alternative medicine as a powerful tool to alleviate pain in chemo and radiation patients. She found that by pairing Traditional Chinese Medicine with Western modalities, patients received a deeper level of healing and an increased chance of survivorship.
In 2016, Ruth had the opportunity to train with leading health experts in Guangzhou, China. She went on to pursue her Masters in Oriental Medicine and a Doctorate in Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine. Since then, she has held firm to her commitment to empower patients to live their very best life by conquering a wide range of ailments - both physical and psychological.
Having overcome her complex grief after the loss of a child, Ruth understands first-hand the heavy emotions proceed illness. She has a deep love for women and children and loves to help families dealing with anxiety, depression, or other behavioral conditions. Her patients describe her as empathetic, intuitive, and well-informed. At Alleviate Acupuncture Wellness Clinic, Dr. Ruth helps you to:
